so I'm  trying to buy the fabric now. Anyone 
care to  comment?



I like the pink check for the spencer--I have seen more silk or wool  
spencers than linen ones.
 
The blue gauze for the ballgown sounds good, but not sure how much you can  
get done in 3 weeks.
 
If worst comes to worst, you could make your white dress low-necked and  
short sleeved, but make separate undersleeves and a chemisette.  Wear it  with 
the 
spencer and bonnet for day, and with a smashing turban for  evening.  While I 
have never worn it for 2 events on the same day, I have  worn one of my white 
cotton dresses for both day and evening--with a fichu and  bonnet for day, 
and a turban and cameo jewelry for evening.
